Provisional Psychologist Taren has recommended "The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Clinical Psychology"; an essential, practice-focused guide for clinicians and trainees. 📘

Blending the latest research with real-world application, it covers key developmental stages, from infancy to adolescence, alongside critical issues like child abuse and major life transitions. Each chapter features case examples, assessment and treatment guidance, and practical exercises.

Fully updated with the latest DSM/ICD revisions and advances in assessment, treatment, and positive psychology, this is a must-have resource for evidence-based practice in child and adolescent mental health.

This book can be purchased through Amazon, and other reputable stores:

Provisional Psychologist, Mouhamad Kreidli, recommends "Savoring: A new model of positive experience"

The book explores “savoring,” or the ability to notice and appreciate positive experiences and emotions in life. It presents a new psychological framework explaining how people experience and manage enjoyment, supported by research and tools for measuring savoring.

Bryant and Veroff clarify how savoring differs from related concepts like pleasure, coping, and flow, and examine the conditions needed for it to occur. They also take a lifespan perspective, looking at how time influences savoring, and connect it to areas such as relationships, health, creativity, and spirituality.

In addition to theory, the book offers practical strategies and exercises to help people enhance savoring in everyday life. It is aimed at students, researchers, and practitioners in psychology, especially those interested in positive psychology and improving well-being.

Clients may often present to us with confusing or contradicting thoughts; strategies they have used before are not working to solve problems they are experiencing.
This summary of ACT-based techniques may help to “defuse” or guide from these unhelpful thought processes.

🎉 Congratulations to our Provisional Psychologist Taren! 🎉

Psychological care should be guided by evidence - but whose evidence counts? 🤔

Traditional evidence-based practice often draws on research from Western populations, which may not reflect the experiences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples or other diverse communities. This article explores how combining evidence-based practice with practice-based evidence - incorporating lived experience, community knowledge, and Indigenous knowledge systems - can support more culturally safe, inclusive, and equitable psychological care.

Practice-based evidence helps centre the voices and perspectives of communities historically excluded from research, offering an important pathway to addressing ongoing health inequities.
The linked article gives a detailed comparison between Evidence-Based Practice versus Practice-Based Evidence, with specific reference to cultural groups such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

Adopting a broader and more inclusive approach to evidence represents an important step toward addressing the persistent inequities experienced by many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and diverse communities
